Hello, this is so very interesting to read! I'm definitely not on your very skilled and advanced level but I certainly enjoy. I see a combo of both as a really interesting industrial solution. Long time ago I actually raised questions when Node-RED would support multi-user and multi-tenancy. I think when it all begun, no one did really know how it would evolve to what it has become today

I have a couple of thoughts and questions, maybe you could enlighten me?

- in both of your approaches, how do you approach and solve the important data security aspect in the communication between master and workers?
- in most common IoT solutions data collection (information services) is basic but remote access to a "worker" is missing. So I wonder if it could be possible to add/develop such? Basically a feature to establish a VPN channel directly between the master (computer) and a specific worker?

EDIT: In addition we now also see this, where are we going tomorrow?

I am reposting the original announcement here, along with a clarification section addressing the excellent initial feedback I received! Thanks for your understanding.) I'm a big fan of Node-RED and use it for many of my IoT projects. As my projects started to grow, I ran into some common challenges, especially around managing complex user permissions and …
